Interesting indeed! Especially the cartridge ejection, instead of a rim caught by a claw on the bolt it's ejected by a spring loaded barrel, very original.

Someone should direct the builder to this forum ;)

I kind of expected you to get overexcited with it :D

not bad... not bad at all

though I must say I am a bit disapointed that you don't release something more impressive than this every two weeks or so... you know now that you have a lathe/mill :wink:

Yeah, it is kinda shameful. If it's any consolation I'm taking a serious look at the hybrid cartridges again ;)
